He and Orochimaru are of the same generation, but he is half a generation older.

When Orochimaru graduated from the Ninja Academy at the age of six, he was already twelve and had become a genin.

He had personally witnessed how Orochimaru, as a commoner, rose to his current position after becoming Hiruzen Sarutobi's apprentice.

Therefore, Iwate Kin could see that Uchiha Gen had such strength at this age, and his future rise would probably not be weaker than Orochimaru's back then.

"It probably won't be long before Yuan-ge becomes a special Jonin just like us, and maybe even earlier. Ruri, you and Young Master Yan Jun have to work harder too."

Moonlight White Apricot smiled and patted Uzuki Ruri's head.

The Uzuki and Gekko clans are both small in size. Since the Warring States period, they have formed an alliance similar to the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, uniting to protect themselves during times of war. After the establishment of Konoha, the two clans remained old friends and their ties became even closer, with many marriages between them.

In terms of relationship, she is also Ruri Uzuki's cousin.

"Ahem, um, Sister Bai Xing, you don't need to call me 'Young Master' or anything like that. That kind of address will distort my hard work."

Sarutobi Enjun scratched his head and said.

"Let's try our best not to let this freak leave us too far behind."

"I can't help but shrug," said Ruri Uzuki.

People are different from each other, and between people and perverts, they are simply two different worlds.

Ruri Uzuki considers herself to be extremely hardworking. After becoming Orochimaru's apprentice, her strength has improved by leaps and bounds. Such a rate of progress would have been unthinkable before. There is a very high probability that she will be promoted to Jonin before she comes of age.

However, compared to the progress made by Gen Uchiha, it pales in comparison.

She drives a sports car, while others ride in rockets.

In such a short time, he managed to defeat a special Jonin who had mastered the Water Release: Nature Transformation technique, while simultaneously killing another Chunin.

Without further support, it's really hard to say who will win between these two.

Before long, the Konoha command post stationed in the Land of Rain learned of this.

Orochimaru is currently in charge of most of the affairs at the command center.

Since it involved his disciples, Orochimaru personally came to the scene, inquired about the details, and observed the battlefield before nodding to his three disciples with considerable satisfaction.

Sarutobi Enjun and Uzuki Ruri's overall strength is considered above average among Chunin.

Gen Uchiha was almost able to compete with a special Jonin who had reached the Jonin standard in the field of Water Release.

This squad's strength is questionable; it's hard to say whether they can guarantee absolute self-preservation on a battlefield fraught with danger and teeming with powerful figures. Even Orochimaru, or the Five Kage who stand at the pinnacle of the ninja world, have died on the battlefield of the Fourth Shinobi World War.

However, given the strength of this lineup and Uchiha Gen's intellect, as long as they don't encounter a few exceptional individuals or get surrounded by a large-scale army, they shouldn't die so easily on the battlefield.

"You did a good job. Amegakure has noticed the changes in our defensive lines and is coming to investigate. However, although that Amegakure ninja is quite strong, he is still a bit short of a true Jonin. According to the rules, only when a true Jonin-level expert appears among the enemy can the mission be rated as an A-rank mission if it does not involve the situation of a major power or directly affect the safety of the ninja village. Therefore, I can only report this matter as a top-level B-rank mission."

Back at the base, Orochimaru, in front of his three disciples, picked up a pen and wrote a mission scroll, then stamped it with his seal.

B-level mission?

It's alright. Once the task is submitted and approved, it should be enough to level up to level 20.

Although the total experience reward for tasks of the same level is in the same order of magnitude, since this is a top-level B-rank task and I am the one who contributed the most to this task, I will definitely get a lot of experience. Maybe I will still have a lot left after leveling up.

"Orochimaru-sensei, does this mean our team is now capable of carrying out B-rank missions?"

Gen Uchiha looked at the mission scroll that Orochimaru had finished writing and asked a question.

If he has the opportunity to perform more B-level missions, his subsequent level-up speed will be faster.

"Your abilities are sufficient, but there is a certain degree of danger involved. However, your ninja rank is not high enough. Chunin are capable of participating in B-rank missions, but as a team leader, you can only carry out C-rank missions. The ninjas who lead teams for B-rank or higher missions must be Special Jonin or Jonin."

Orochimaru glanced at Uchiha Gen, feeling somewhat puzzled.

This apprentice is great in every way, so why is he so obsessed with carrying out missions?

"However, you all are now capable of participating in B-level missions."

As Orochimaru spoke, he took out two green Konoha ninja vests from the drawer and tossed them to Sarutobi Enjun and Uzuki Ruri.

"Go find Zixiao tomorrow and collect your Chunin certificates."

Ruri Uzuki and Enjun Sarutobi exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

They were probably the first two graduates of this year's Ninja Academy, besides Gen Uchiha, to be promoted to Chunin.

This progress is already quite fast.

Compared to his prodigious teammate, he was utterly mediocre, but compared to the others, they were the cream of the crop among the new generation of ninjas.

"I happen to have some free time this afternoon. If you have any questions about your cultivation recently, feel free to ask."

Orochimaru added a cup of tea to the table and asked.

Orochimaru has been so busy lately that he can barely spare any time for anything else. He doesn't have the support of his elders from his clan backing him up. While there are Jonin like Mitarashi Shishou, who also belongs to Orochimaru's faction, who can offer guidance on the front lines, they are not on the same path.

Mitarashi Shishou is skilled in Lightning Release, Wind Release, and Earth Release, which are different from what Uchiha Gen and others are good at. He is not an all-rounder like Orochimaru.

During this period, the three members of the Uchiha clan have been exploring and adjusting their training plans based on their own experience and knowledge. They have accumulated a lot of doubts, and their training plans need to be modified more specifically according to Orochimaru's guidance.

"Hmm, any other questions?"

Orochimaru then addressed his three disciples.

"If not, then it's my turn to continue. Although it's a bit early for Yan Jun and Liu Li, there's no harm in listening now."

Orochimaru looked at Uchiha Gen again and asked:

"What was it like fighting an enemy who had mastered chakra nature transformation for the first time?"

Yuan lowered his head slightly and pondered for a moment:

"That Rain Ninja's gelatinous water jutsu is even more bizarre than ordinary water jutsu. I think that starting with the change in nature should be the point when jutsu of the same nature truly begin to differentiate themselves."
